If there is anything you need assistance with in order to most-effectively use your Nerivio, please call us at Nerivio cares at (937)-637-4846, Monday through Friday 8am-8pm EST. In the meantime, here are some tips you can use to increase effectiveness: 3 Pillars for effective treatment 1. Start treatment early. • For effective results, you should start the treatment as soon as you feel the first symptoms of the migraine attack and within 60 minutes of the migraine symptoms onset (headache and/or aura). 2. Setting Intensity at the start of each treatment • Use the + to increase the intensity until it feels strong yet comfortable and not painful. • We recommend that the intensity level not be changed during the treatment. 3. Treatment Time • For effective results, complete the full 45-minute treatment. Setting Intensity Since each migraine attack is different, there is no one right setting. The intensity should be strong, but never painful, and should be set within the first few minutes of treatment.    The + and – buttons on your phone screen allow you to set the level, and just after you start a treatment, you can repeatedly press the “plus” button to increase intensity until the sensation feels strong but not uncomfortable.  During clinical trials, the most effective treatment was obtained with intensities over 20% and with averages between 25 and 35%. If you do not get to 20%, however, do not worry, as long as it feels strong. Although the intensity may feel as if it gets weaker during treatment; this is normal and is just your body adjusting to the sensation; there is no need to increase the intensity further.

Not entirely sure how it works or if it really does help but there are times that I notice a difference in my pain levels after using it. I’ve only got it up to 30% intensity so far.

You can learn how Nerivio works- Nerivio® is a remote electrical neurostimulator (REN) which works by applying an electrical signal to sensory nerves in the arm to activate one of your body’s natural pain regulation mechanisms called Conditioned Pain Modulation (CPM). The peripheral activation of Aδ and C fibers in the arm sends a signal to pain control centers in the lower brain to release pain inhibiting molecules that inhibit migraine pain signals. The electrical parameters of the Nerivio device are specifically designed to activate sensory fibers. TENS devices have different electrical parameters that activate touch fibers. Because of the difference in electrical parameters, the two devices have different mechanisms of action and are not interchangeable. They should only be used according to the directions in their respective labels, under the guidance of your physician.

Effectiveness seems to increase with use, but need to use it in conjunction with other tools I.e. theracane, essential oils (when not taking medication).

Some days it works well, others not as much. I have hypnic migraine which makes things difficult. I'm used to having headaches most nights. I can no longer take my oral medications because I had a very mild stroke 2 months ago, and those meds are contraindicated now. I'm very happy I have Nerivio along with an Allay green light.

Nerivio has given me a extra tool to fight my migraines. Often when I catch it soon enough it will stop a migraine from manifesting. Even when the migraine takes hold, with the use of OTC meds and Nurivio it usually will knock it down to a tolerable level that allows me to function.

It's more like a tens unit and the video is a biofeedback session. Tried four different times and it worked once. I tried to give it a one bar, but it automatically changed to three bars.

We are sorry to hear Nerivio hasn’t worked for you yet. We encourage you to consider contacting Nerivio Cares customer support so one of our Nerivio Cares representatives will be able to help you get the most effective treatment with your device before you give up. Please contact us at support@Nerivio.com or call us at 866-637-4846, M-F 8am-8pm EST. To address your concern about our mechanism of action, here is a description below: Standard transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulators (TENS devices) on the market are designed with specific electrical parameters that activate touch fibers. The activation of touch fibers at the site of pain can temporarily inhibit the signaling of pain. That is why a TENS unit is applied to the site of pain. To better illustrate this mechanism, when a person hits their head on something and rubs it to alleviate the pain, they are mechanically activating touch fibers when rubbing to temporarily inhibit the pain. This mechanism is known as the Gate control mechanism of pain inhibition. Nerivio® is a remote electrical neurostimulator (REN) which works by applying an electrical signal to sensory nerves in the arm to activate one of your body’s natural pain regulation mechanisms called Conditioned Pain Modulation (CPM). The peripheral activation of Aδ and C fibers in the arm sends a signal to pain control centers in the lower brain to release pain inhibiting molecules that inhibit migraine pain signals. The electrical parameters of the Nerivio device are specifically designed to activate sensory fibers. TENS devices have different electrical parameters that activate touch fibers.

The device works incredibly well. If I can get it started when a migraine starts it resolves the migraine symptoms 90% of the time. I also love that it's portable.
